- Fluidhand2 | Vincent Systems
1999 - Fluidhand 2 Up The new planar technology for manufacturing fluidic drives and kinematics was therefore ideally suited for actively moving miniature catheters and endoscopes. However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. The tubes of the Fluidhand 2 were unfolded in the finger joints. When subjected to an overpressure of up to 4 bar, the joints expanded unilaterally and realized a curvature in the opposite joint direction. Each finger of the hand has two pneumatic muscles, the thumb has three, the wrist has four. The extension is done by a rubber band. The joint and support structure in the fingers, thumb and hand, was made of fiber-reinforced composite material. The artificial hand scored with its consistently soft and compliant structure, very fast movements and pronounced adaptability when grasping. The grasping forces achieved were around 2.5 N per finger. Objects heavier than 500 g could not yet be grasped with this hand. As in Fluidhand 1, the hand was driven by compressed air, which meant that a powerful compressor was required to operate the hand. Up
- VINCENTpartial body | Vincent Systems
Passive partial hand system for partial hand prostheses with flexible finger positioning, durable materials, and optional cable-operated joint. VINCENTpartial body bodypowered partial hand system The passive partial hand system enables prosthetic reconstruction of part of the hand. It consists of functional passive finger and thumb prostheses that can be positioned at different angles in one or two joints. The weight-optimized stainless steel joints with variable-length finger or thumb attachments are very robust and water-resistant. The finger or thumb covers, which vary in length, are made of durable and dirt-repellent HTV silicone. The fingers are mounted directly to the shaft with two screws coming from the shaft or aligned and fixed in position using various frame types made of stainless steel sheet and aluminum adapters. The fingers can be equipped with a cable-pull joint and, optionally, a grid joint. The joints work in such a way that pulling the cable causes the cable-pull joint to bend. Flyer VINCENTpartial body
- Fluidhand8 | Vincent Systems
2005 - Fluidhand 8 Up The Fluidhand 8 has 8 drives that are controlled via 5 valves. The bellows in the index finger and middle finger are each hydraulically coupled with each other, and the drives of the ring and little fingers are also connected with each other via a common valve. The special feature of this further development is that the metacarpus has been replaced by a hermetically sealed pressure body. Inside the metacarpus is an elastic tank in the form of a diaphragm, in which both the drive medium (vegetable oil) and the control electronics, valves and pump are integrated; all system components "float" permanently in the drive medium. Between the pressure body shell and the diaphragm there is again a two-phase gas with a constant pressure of 2 bar. The integrated design allows any space reserves in the metacarpus to be used as a fluid reservoir, while at the same time forming a maximum gas volume for preloading the hydraulic tank. The pump can draw directly from the environment and the pump, valves and electronics are optimally cooled by the surrounding liquid. The design makes the hand very compact and at the same time extremely stable. Due to the very flat metacarpus of 30 mm and the short design, the hand achieves an anatomical shape and with only 410 g it is particularly light. The Quicksnap wrist closure makes the prosthesis compatible with all stem systems and their power supply. The prosthesis is controlled by two EMG electrodes integrated in the prosthesis socket. Simple trigger switching signals can be used to switch between pre-programmed grips and the grips can then be controlled proportionally. For the first time, a sense of touch has also been integrated into the prosthesis. The grasping force measured on the index finger via a sensor is transmitted to the system controller, which activates a vibration motor on the hand that transmits coded information to the prosthesis wearer about the force applied. In addition, the Fluidhand 8 serves as a test platform for new prosthesis controls such as grip pattern recognition or motion control using 3D sensors, research areas on which the research center has been working intensively as part of the Fluidhand development.

History of the Fluidhand and the VINCENTevolution 1998 Fluidhand 1 thin foil soft robot hand with 5DOF, 5iDOF This first soft hand consists of thin foil layers, which have been joined together to form more complex drives in a sandwich construction. Five fingers, built up from 6 foil layers each, functionally welded in pairs, with the middle two foils forming the skeletal structure filled with epoxy resin. The outer two foil layers each form a fluidic muscle. For this purpose, two thin films were welded together in such a manner that chambers were formed in a row and connected to each other. When this structure is inflated with a gas or liquid, it contracts by about 20% of its length, similar to the natural muscle, and the finger curls up like a bow.

However, the forces achievable with planar film drives, which operate at a working pressure of 0.5-1 bar, were too low for the construction of an artificial hand. To generate higher grasping forces, a correspondingly higher working pressure had to act in the fluidic drives. For Fluidhand 2, “artificial muscles” based on thin silicone hoses were therefore used, which were sheathed with a flexurally flexible, stretch-resistant fabric made of polyamide. Read more 2000 Fluidhand 3 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 1iDOF With the third generation of the Fluidhand, Schulz transferred the technology of flexible fluid actuators to a hand prosthesis. To achieve higher grasping forces, the drives were modified for grasping even heavy objects. The unfolded silicone tubes reinforced with fabric were replaced by miniature folded bellows, which in turn were encased in fabric and attached to aluminum joints in the folds by nylon threads to keep their shape. Three drive elements in each finger, with the two distal bellows coupled together, and two drives in the thumb allow 14 joint axes to move in this hand, equivalent to 14 DOF at 10 iDOF. The fluid actuators were driven by means of miniature hydraulics. The control system, consisting of pump, valve, electronics, sensors and tank, was connected to the prosthesis via a hose approximately 1 m long. The hydraulic unit was the size of a portable telephone and was worn on the belt. Read more 2001 Fluidhand 4 rubber bulg soft hand prosthesis with 10DOF, 6iDOF The Fluidhand 4 has 10 flexible bellows drives, each of which, when pressurized, angles an aluminum joint by 90 degrees. Stretching is achieved by suction of the drive medium and by additional elastic bands. Each long finger has two drives that are fluidically coupled to each other and each leads to a common control valve in the metacarpus. The thumb has two individually movable drives, each of which is actuated by a separate valve. The drive medium is water. This hand prosthesis operates hydraulically for the first time. A miniature pump draws the fluid from an elastic reservoir in the forearm and pumps it at up to 6 bar via the valve bank into the bellows drive chambers. The pump and valves are controlled by a microprocessor in the hand, and the prosthesis wearer gives the control commands via myoelectric sensors. Read more 2002 Fluidhand 5 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 8DOF, 5iDOF The Fluidhand 5 was designed with the aim of integrating all system components of miniature hydraulics into the metacarpals in order to make the hand compatible with established socket systems. The prosthesis can be connected to all standard prosthetic sockets via a quicksnap wrist. Both the myoelectric sensors and the energy storage of the socket are used. The pump, fluid tank, valve bank and controller are located in and on the metacarpus. With the reduction in tank size, the number of fluidic drive was reduced to 8. The ring finger and little finger are flexed over one drive each. In the weight-optimized frame in sandwich construction, the elastic finger abduction was integrated. Five valves control the 8 drives of the hand, with the ring, little and middle fingers being hydraulically connected to each other. Read more 2003 Fluidhand 6 rubber bulg soft handprosthesis with 4DOF, 3iDOF The Fluidhand 6 is a particularly compact version of the hydraulic hand prosthesis, reduced to the essentials. The index, middle and ring fingers are each moved in the base joint via a flexible bellows drive, the little finger is mechanically coupled to the ring finger, and the middle finger is hydraulically coupled to the ring finger. The thumb is actuated in the basic joint. In this way, the thumb and index finger can be moved separately, while the other fingers move together. The 4 drives are controlled by a 3 valve bank, the miniature pump sucks distilled water from a pressure storage tank to pump it into the drive chambers. The weight of the hand is about 350 g. The aluminum fingers were covered with a PU foam. In the basic joints, all long fingers have an elastically mounted abduction.

It is used to develop new control methods and to test a new tank system that is capable of storing energy. The hand therefore has one valve for each of the 8 drives. A type of spring accumulator was developed for the hydraulic tank, which allows the hand to be closed quickly and silently without the hydraulic pump operating. Due to the large number of new and experimental components, the metacarpus has turned out to be significantly larger than the previous model, but at this stage of development, the anatomical shape and size of the hand is not a priority.

The base joints of the index finger and middle finger are equipped with stronger drives. The elastic fluid tank is located in the wrist. When the fingers are emptied, they are stretched and the fluid is pumped from the finger joints into the elastic tank in the wrist, bending the wrist and opening the hand further. The pump is noise-isolated and free-swinging in a CFRP tank; valves and controls are located in the metacarpus, which is completely covered with CFRP.

- Greta's Story | Vincent Systems
Greta finds the VINCENTevolution to be a high-tech companion: rugged, portable, and stylish—perfect for outdoor adventures, travel, and everyday life. Close Bionic on Tour – My Journey with the VINCENTevolution By Greta Hi! I’m Greta, 24 years old, studying psychology and neuroscience in Würzburg, and I was born without my right hand. For most of my life, I did not wear a prosthesis. I was active and felt completely whole without assistive technology. But as I started traveling more, riding my bike, climbing mountain peaks, and diving into new adventures, I realized something important: a well-designed bionic hand prosthesis can be more than just a hand replacement. It can be a real gamechanger. Today, I wear the VINCENTevolution bionic hand from Vincent Systems, with black finger segments and a transparent silicone cover. The robotic look remains visible, and that is exactly what I love. Making high-tech prosthetic technology visible instead of hiding it is my motto. Alongside my studies, I work as a bionic model, and the prosthesis is always a highlight during photoshoots. The reactions are overwhelmingly positive. I often hear comments like, “Wow, that looks like something from the future,” or “That’s not a disadvantage, it’s a statement.” And that is exactly how I see it. Both professionally and privately, I am constantly on the move, whether in the mountains, on my bike, or sometimes even paragliding. Especially while traveling, my myoelectric upper limb prosthesis has proven incredibly practical. Recently, I joined a ski touring trip as a featured athlete for an outdoor brand, and of course my prosthetic hand was part of the adventure. Freezing temperatures, steep ascents, a climbing section, and right in the middle of it all, me with my VINCENTevolution. When I am outdoors, I truly appreciate the multiple, easy-to-select grip patterns and the strong prosthetic grip strength. Holding a ski pole, for example, requires a firm and reliable grip. When we finally reached the summit, I knew I could do everything without limitations. Whether in the mountains, camping, strolling through the city, or cycling, my prosthesis is always a trusted companion. One feature I particularly value is the USB-C charging port. It allows me to recharge the prosthetic hand easily on the go using a power bank, whether I am on a bus in Morocco or on a night train to Italy. Lifting heavy luggage onto a train or pushing open a stuck compartment door is no problem, thanks to the durable aluminum alloy used in the inner structure of the prosthetic hand. The best part is that I do not wear my prosthesis because I have to, but because I want to. It complements me without defining me. I decide when it serves as a tool and when it does not. Through my studies in psychology and neuroscience, I have developed a fascinating perspective on the connection between body and technology. I spend a lot of time exploring body perception, neuropsychological processes, and the question of what “normal” really means. My prosthesis is part of that exploration and invites new social experiences every day. I am excited to see how modern prosthetic technology will continue to evolve. But even now, I am grateful to have such a powerful piece of high-tech by my side, whether on a mountain peak, in a lecture hall, or in front of the camera.

The joint offers compatibility with other systems such as DynamicArm or Boston Digital Arm™. VINCENTwrist short Our transcarpal joint convinces with its uniquely low mounting depth and is therefore also suitable for long arm stumps. In addition to the prosthesis-side joint, the shaft-side lamination plate (22 g / 0.05 lb) is also particularly light. The standard wrist and the transcarpal joint can be rotated noiselessly and gridlessly. The force required for rotation can be individually adjusted for each user. Both wrists can be combined with the joint VINCENTwrist flexion that can be angled. VINCENTwrist flexion The joint has a large range of movement and allows for flexion from -36° to +36°. lt is particularly suitable for bilateral users due to its switchless operation. The position is changed by pulling, moving and releasing. Our four wrist options are characterized by their low mounting depths. Due to the intelligent multi-material-mix, the wrists are particularly light and at the same time very robust and corrosion resistant.

- VINCENTyoung3+ Children's & Youth Hand Prosthesis | Vincent Systems
Lightweight, robust, multi-articulated hand prosthesis for children and adolescents with a modern design and waterproof – ideal for active young users. VINCENTyoung3+ Waterproof to IP67 | Modern look | Anatomical design | High grip strength | Compact, lightweight, robust Various wrist types | Numerous grip types, selectable at any time | Easy to use | Available in four colors With VINCENTyoung3+, we are introducing the third generation of the world's unique multi-articulating hand prosthesis for children and young adults. Depending on the child’s individual development, use from the age of 8 is recommended. But even with adolescents, the anatomically shaped, particularly light hand can be the first choice. For young adults who have somewhat larger hands, the VINCENTevolution5 (size XS) can also be considered. Thanks to its lightweight construction, the prosthesis scores with its low weight (approx. 350 g ) and robustness, which is extremely important for active everyday activities. The VINCENTyoung3+ is waterproof to IP67. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis shaft also permits this. In terms of finger strength, speed and an opening width of 80 mm, the functionality extends to that of the larger models. Three of the four motors in the hand move the long fingers independently of each other in the base joint, with the ring and little fingers moving together. The long fingers are designed to be immobile in the middle and end phalanx. From the middle joint onwards, a spring element extends to the fingertip, which supports an adaptive grip when holding objects. The thumb is moved by the fourth motor independently of the fingers. The base of the thumb can be pivoted passively and laterally via a 90° joint. An easy and quick-to-learn control system allows the user to select from 16 different grips using muscle signals. The specially tailored training app and learning games support children and young people in getting to know the control system, making the hand easy to operate after a short time. The VINCENTyoung3+ is available in four color options: powder blue, black, blackberry and natural. As with the VINCENTevolution5, the VINCENTyoung3+ also offers a choice of four wrist variants. The hand can be worn with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG . However, it is usually used without a glove, because: It “just looks cool”.

- Previous model | VINCENTevolution3 / 3+
Third-generation (of 5) myoelectric hand prosthesis with high grip strength, anatomical design, and precise control. VINCENTevolution3 / 3+ Modern look | 4-channel control | Anatomical design | Higher grip force | Compact, lightweight, robust Numerous grasps | Various wrist types | Easy operation without additional aids | Optionally available in titanium The third generation of the hand prosthesis series, VINCENTevolution3 features a multi-award-winning anatomical design concept and the proven control strategy of VINCENTevolution2. At the same time, it scores with twice the grip strength of its predecessor model, millimeter precision between the thumb and index finger, and an overall higher load-bearing capacity of the hand. The wearing comfort of the VINCENT hand series also stands out in the new model series due to the low prosthesis weight. The most striking innovation was achieved in terms of dimensions. While VINCENTevolution2 was only available in size M, VINCENTevolution3 anatomically reproduces all the usual sizes of an adult hand in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL. Sizes S and XS are currently the smallest multi-articulating hand prostheses on the market and could already be suitable for children and adolescents. The basic version of the VINCENTevolution3 is available in a stable aluminum alloy or optionally with finger components made of high-strength titanium. In addition, prosthesis wearers can choose between four different wrist options. Like all VINCENT prostheses, the third generation is equipped with a vibrotactile sense of touch and gesture-controlled handle selection. The hand can be worn in combination with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG, silicone or without a glove. NEW: VINCENTevolution3+ The VINCENTevolution3+ is the waterproof design variant of the VINCENTevolution3. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis stem also permits this. An already purchased VINCENTevolution3 with splash water protection IP64 can be upgraded to a VINCENTevolution3+ with protection against temporary submersion IP67 at any time. - Contact your service technician for more information.

- Robotics | Vincent Systems
VINCENTevolution5 Humanoid Robotics Cutting-edge robotics meets high-tech hand prosthetics At Booth B59 in Hall 11 of the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space (BMFTR) at the 2026 Hannover Messe, modern robotics and highly advanced bionic hand systems come together in a joint technological application. The latest generation of the ARMAR robot family, developed at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), impressively demonstrates how closely these two fields can work together. The ARMAR 7 service robot, developed at KIT, was equipped with two hand systems from the Karlsruhe-based company Vincent Systems GmbH as part of a research collaboration. The VINCENTevolution5 hand systems were equipped with a new interface and software for this application. The humanoid robots of the ARMAR family are designed to assist people in their daily lives and at work. ARMAR-7 has recently begun using our bionic VINCENT hands for this purpose and benefits from their proven suitability for everyday use, which is reflected in an extremely robust construction, high gripping force, and precise control. The robotic hands are made of high-strength aluminum and, optionally, titanium, which is coated with HTV silicone. In the hand, which weighs only 450g, six powerful motors control the 6 iDOF and 11 joints, enabling gripping forces of up to 45N to be generated at each individual fingertip. The robust, waterproof design (IP68) as well as the anatomical shape and size make the VINCENTevolution5 the ideal hand for humanoid robotics. ARMAR-7 with VINCENTevolution hand systems

- Tim's Story | Vincent Systems
Tim shows how he wears his VINCENTevolution prosthesis openly: high-tech, customizable, and stylish—for everyday life and special occasions. Close Foto: Kira Flora High-tech you can touch: Why I wear my prosthesis openly By Tim Hello! I’m Tim, 33 years old, living with my wife in Stuttgart, and I have been a prosthesis user for 10 years. I have always been a very active and athletic person—even the accident that left me wearing a prosthetic arm for the past 10 years hasn't changed that. Nevertheless, such an event brings with it a number of new challenges. In addition to coping with everyday life, I also had to get used to a new body image. Suddenly, you no longer look like everyone else, which can be particularly difficult for young people. As an engineer, I have always been very interested in technology. So it was clear to me from the outset that my prosthesis should be visible. Personally, I have always preferred to wear it openly rather than covering it with sleeves or gloves. Today, I wear a myoelectric upper arm prosthesis with an active elbow and a VINCENTevolution from Vincent Systems – all in black. The “robotic” look of my left arm often sparks curiosity and fascination. Because I wear my prosthetic arm openly, people frequently approach me with questions. I can then decide for myself whether I feel like explaining my bionic prosthetic hand or not. B eyond public perception, aesthetics also play an important role in personal acceptance. The fact is, if you do not feel comfortable with your prosthesis, you are less likely to wear it consistently. This may lead to doing certain tasks without the prosthesis, even though a myoelectric prosthetic arm would actually be well suited for them. Fortunately, today there are many ways to customize the appearance of a prosthesis according to personal preferences. Often, prosthetists can incorporate visual customization directly during the fabrication of the socket. Covers allow for interchangeable looks for different occasions, and prosthetic hands are now available in an increasing variety of colors. The prosthetic hands from Vincent Systems, for example, are offered in numerous color combinations for both aluminum and silicone components. For my wedding this spring, I wore a light-colored suit. Since my regular prosthetic hand created a strong contrast, I borrowed a VINCENTevolution bionic hand in cream white and gold. The prosthesis blended perfectly with my outfit and complemented the look for this special occasion. The design philosophy of Vincent Systems has always emphasized open design. For their commitment to developing prosthetic hands that combine advanced functionality with visible high-tech aesthetics, without cosmetic gloves, the company received the German Design Award in 2014. Personally, I am very grateful to wear such a high-tech prosthetic device, one that I can fully rely on in everyday life as well as on special occasions. At the same time, I am excited about the future of modern prosthetic technology and look forward to the innovations yet to come.
